Lauren is awesome and her team is just as kind, when my fiancee and I go in for our appointments. My fiancee and I are both curly headed, who cannot trust just anyone to handle our hair care. That being said, it is why we both highly recommend the team here! Lauren is thoughtful in the products she recommends and giving advice on styling/managing/caring for our curly hair on the daily.Service: Curly hair

This was my first time at elements and I had an amazing experience! Sophia was my stylist and she was so friendly and easy to talk to! I got to take home one of their organic products and I can’t wait to use it!Services: Curly hair

Amazing experience - never had such a comprehensive assessment of my hair health and scalp health - got the scalp facial and single process color, also given recommendations for psoriasis for my scalp and my damaged hair - bought several of their surface products (the shampoo conditioner called awaken and their bassu oil and bassu leave in spray as well as awaken serum) all have helped my hair health and scalp health in the last 3/4 weeks I’ve been using them. Traveled from columbia MD to come here and will keep coming here even if it means I have to sit on 495 to get here!

I've been a client at Elements for over 7 years, but I'm writing this review tonight because I feel like a first-time customer again! From my very first consultation in 2013 (when I confessed how much I hate my fine, flat hair) until today, Lauren has always taken the time to understand where I am and to focus all her efforts on helping me walk out the door a more confident woman than I walked in. Today, after over 5 months away from Elements (thanks to COVID), I walked in with grey roots, hair that had been bleached to some shade of blonde by the sun and generic products, and straggly ends that needed to be cut. While keeping all necessary safety precautions in place, Lauren made me feel immediately better as she planned what subtle differences we could make in my color and how we'd be cutting off a couple of inches right away. By the time I walked out of the salon, there was a noticeable shift in my demeanor--even my husband (of more than a decade) declared he felt like he was out to dinner with a new woman! As I passed a mirror getting ready for bed, I couldn't help but acknowledge the truth: the magic Lauren worked with my hair has made me feel confident about my appearance in a way that I haven't in months. Professional always and very safety focused in light of COVID today, Elements has, once again, been a place that makes me a happier, better version of myself.

My long time hairdresser retired and I was so nervous about finding a new one. I took a chance and booked with Lauren based on the reviews. Lauren is fantastic! Her cuts are exactly what I asked for and her color (I have dark hair) is fabulous. It lasts a long time, too. I also use the products sold there and have been very pleased.

Wonderful environment where every client walks out a better, but true, version of themselves! Kudos to Irving, the owner, who sets the tone. ?

Warm and welcoming waiting area and staff. Amber is a sweet, friendly, and vibrant stylist who got the job done swiftly and perfectly; my semi-permanent root coverage was the perfect tone, the product used was organic, and the process was smooth and enjoyable. And...the head massage during the rinse/wash phase was by far the absolute best I've ever received by a stylist's assistant! Prices were reasonable. I look forward to my next visit.

Elements McLean isn't a "Cut, blow and go" type of salon. They get to know you first with a 30 minute consultation. Elements McLean is owned by Irving Russo and his daughter who only use organic products for your hair and skin. Located in the heart of McLean, VA they're easy to find, convenient, friendly and best of all, extremely talented. With over 50 years of experience as a Master Stylist and Colorist, Irving can fix bad hairstyles from other stylists. Give Elements McLean a try if you're wanting a new look!

Just moved to McLean and searching for a new salon? Try them! I tried a handful of local salons and am so grateful to have finally found Elements. They use organic, parabens-and sulfates-free (and much more) Surface products; are always friendly and flexible; and consistently make me look good (if my teens are any judge).

If you have dark hair, DO NOT get your hair colored here. They are not well trained or have enough experience to work with dark hair. I went there to get a subtle balayage; I was very excited with the cleaner products they offer. I ended up with brassy hair which looks terrible. The salon and their products are nice, which is the only reason I am giving two stars. Elements should train their stylist much better to not make these terrible mistakes.

Don't book online unless you want to be disappointed when they call you the day before your appt and say they don't have time for you
